speculation

Apple 802.11n was hiding under our noses all along

With all of the excitement over the iPhone, Leopard, and the iTV, somehow this little gem slipped. Apparently, the Advanced Wireless section of the Macworld Expo Power Tools Conference - Series 1 page talks extensively about 802.11n wireless and briefly mentions two other products — Airport Extreme X2 and X4. As the page is mostly about 802.11n itself, there is no mention of what the X2 and X4 are and how they work. But what does this mean? Could this actually be two new products that Apple is announcing tomorrow at the Stevenote? Or could it be referring to something else, as the page does say “…with 802.11n, or Airport Extreme X2 and X4.”? While there’s no way to know until tomorrow, this looks pretty legit, though I do wonder why it only came out just now.
